      DiseaseAssertion: Patient had thrombocytopenia, associated bleeding, neutropenia, and lymphoid hyperplasia in lungs, lymph nodes, and brain, refractory to immunomodulatory therapy. The diagnosis of CTLA4 haploinsufficiency was made retrospectively in 7 patients who underwent HSCT for life-threatening, treatment-resistant immune dysregulation and in 1 patient prospectively (unclear which patients were identified retrospectively and prospectively).

      CaseHPOFreeText: ITP and autoimmune neutropenia, Reactive lymphoid hyperplasia—lymph nodes, lung, frontal lobe brain.

      All 8 patients received steroids and a calcineurin inhibitor before transplant

      Five patients (including this patient) had peripheral blood HSC grafts and received cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) for graft versus host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis.

      Patient died 4 months post-transplant due to transplant-related mortality of severe acute gut GvHD (Acute grade IV gut).

      Case#:1/M. 1.5 y.o. (onset) and 14 y.o. (at assessment), male

      DiseaseAssertion: Patient had arthritis, neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, lymphadenopathy, and abdominal pain. The diagnosis of CTLA4 haploinsufficiency was made retrospectively in 7 patients who underwent HSCT for life-threatening, treatment-resistant immune dysregulation and in 1 patient prospectively (unclear which patients were identified retrospectively and prospectively).

      FamilyInfo: Father was noted to have Immune dysregulation, Cytopenias and Lymphoma. The patient's father was also noted to have a complex autoimmune disease and died after autologous HSCT for non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

      CaseHPOFreeText: Autoimmune pancytopenia, Recurrent abdominal pain, Arthritis

      This patient was offered HSCT because of ongoing autoimmunity and risk of lymphoma because his father had complex autoimmune disease and died after autologous HSCT for non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

      All 8 patients received steroids and a calcineurin inhibitor before transplant

      Five patients (including this patient) had peripheral blood HSC grafts and received cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) for graft versus host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis.

      DiseaseAssertion: Evans Syndrome

      FamilyInfo: No familial segregation analysis could be performed as the patient′s first‐degree relatives (reportedly healthy) refused genetic testing, and the patient had no progeny.

      Normal total leukocyte count but patient had lymphopenia.

      Antidiphtheria Ab: 0.44 UI/mL (protection titer >1.0 UI/mL); peripheral blood mononuclear cell proliferation to PHA, PPD, and Candida were slightly reduced.

      Normal levels of CD3+ and CD4+ but low levels of CD8+ (T cells), Low levels of B cells, NK cells and CD4+ (CD45RA+ and CD45RO+) cells. Normal levels of CD45RA+ but high levels of CD45RO+ (CD8 + T cells).

      Born to nonconsanguineous parents.

      CaseNotHPOs: N/A

      CaseNotHPOFreeText: In 2013, the 45‐year‐old patient was admitted for sepsis. An elective total right hip replacement 6 months before had been followed by recurrent urosepsis. Postoperative diagnosis: recurrent urosepsis caused by Enteroccocus faecalis, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

      For the next 3 years, the patient remained free of infection on IVIG replacement (0.6–0.8 g/kg) every 3–4 weeks, with a median IgG concentration of approximately 6 g/L. In October 2016, he underwent a transurethral resection of the prostate and soon afterward developed diarrhea and significant weight loss. He was again admitted to our hospital, but after extensive investigation, no infectious or immune‐mediated cause could be found. There was an excellent response to a short course of a higher dose of oral prednisolone (30 mg/day, tapered over the next 2 months to 5 mg/day). In February 2017, he was admitted to his local hospital with left‐sided epididymo‐orchitis and rapidly died from hospital‐acquired pneumonia.

      CasePreviousTesting: Broad genetic screening using a custom panel of many immune‐related genes using an ion proton next‐generation sequencer, followed by Sanger sequencing, was performed at the Laboratory of Clinical and Infectious Diseases of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Bethesda, Maryland. See Table 1.

      GenotypingMethod: CTLA‐4 sequencing was performed after amplification of the four exons. See Table 1.

      • Title: Faster than expected
      • subtitle: why most climate scientists can’t tell the truth (in public) Author: Jackson Damien

      • This is a good article written from a psychotherapist's perspective,

      • examining the psychology behind why published, mainstream, peer reviewed climate change research is always dangerously lagging behind current research,
      • and recommending what interventions could be be taken to remedy this
      • This your of scientific misinformation coming from scientists themselves
      • gives minimizers and denialists the very ammunition they need to legitimise delay of the urgently needed system change.
      • What climate scientists say In public is far from what they believe in private.
      • For instance, many climate scientists don't believe 1.5 Deg. C target is plausible anymore, but don't say so in public.
      • That reticence is due to fear of violating accepted scientific social norms,
      • being labeled alarmist and risk losing their job.
      • That creates a collective cognitive dissonance that acts as a feedback signal
      • for society to implement change at a dangerously slow pace
      • and to not spend the necessary resources to prepare for the harm already baked in.
      • The result of this choice dissonance is that
      • there is no collective sense of an emergency or a global wartime mobilisation scale of collective behaviour.
      • Our actions are not commensurate to the permanent emergency state we are now in.
      • The appropriate response that is suggested is for the entire climate science community to form a coalition that creates a new kind of peer reviewed publishing and reporting
      • that publicly responds to the current and live knowledge that is being discovered every day.
      • This is done from a planetary and permanent emergency perspective in order to eliminate the dangerous delays that create the wrong human collective behavioural responses.

      Without your comment I'd never find the real issue, because I was only look at permanent failures. That error message is really misleading, hope they can fix this.

      Kelly commented · December 30, 2020 2:35 AM

      Yes we desperately need this too. Half of our recipients were soft bounced due to "Too old" but we could still send to them previously on other ESPs.

    2. ...but even repeated soft bounces is a message level event, not one that means there will never be an opportunity to deliver to this address again. Hence Mailgun itself not adding this to their permanent uppression list..but that implies, right, that they will send to the permanent failure hook in this case?

      That could be a problem, if it actually send to the permanent failure hook in this case. Then you would have to hit their bounces API to check whether it's actually a permanent failure / hard bounce for the recipient as opposed to just for this message.

    3. Mailgun, with its permanent failure webhook, is sending a message about a permanent failure of that specific message - it is Campaign that is then making a decision to translate this message, about just that one message, into a permanently bounced (suppressed) contact, and blocking all future emails to that contact - based on, what is clearly quite possibly just a temporary failure. It's really the distinction between a single message level (temporary) problem and a (permanent) contact level problem that is being lost with Campaign's current approach.
